This project involves creating a highly detailed 3D model from a provided photograph, with the objective of producing a print-ready file for casting a bronze plate. The model will serve as a mold for an art foundry test at a historic bell foundry in Braga, Portugal. The ideal candidate is an expert 3D designer based in Portugal, capable of transforming a single image into a realistic, volumetric 3D representation suitable for bronze casting. The work is remote, but local expertise is required to ensure the final output meets the technical and artistic standards necessary for successful foundry production. The project timeline is one week, and the result will be used as a benchmark for future art foundry initiatives.
Deliverables
- Develop a detailed, print-ready 3D model based on the provided photograph, optimized for bronze casting.
- Ensure the model accurately captures facial features and depth for a lifelike result.
- Prepare the 3D file in a format compatible with standard 3D printing and foundry processes.
- Collaborate as needed to refine the model for optimal casting results.
- Deliver the final 3D file within the specified one-week timeframe.
Requirements
- Proven expertise in 3D modeling for sculpture, portraiture, or foundry applications.
- Advanced proficiency with industry-standard 3D design software (e.g., ZBrush, Blender, or similar).
- Demonstrated experience converting photographs into realistic 3D models suitable for physical production.
- Strong understanding of the technical requirements for 3D printing and bronze casting.
- Based in Portugal; remote work is acceptable.
- Excellent attention to detail and ability to meet tight deadlines.
- Strong communication skills for feedback and iteration.
